Details
— with a skein of BRIGADEIRO yarn, embroider the snout.
(the bottom part of it will be right in the center of the magic ring, use the auxiliary photos to help you)
— also embroider the eyebrow with BRIGADEIRO thread.
— with a skein of WHITE yarn, detail the eyes.
Tips
— Be very careful when stuffing your piece. Plush yarn is soft and can easily deform and leave your stitches open.
— When embroidering eyebrows and the whites of the eyes, separate the yarn in half and use two strands of it to make the embroidery more delicate.
— If you want to use a different yarn, you can do it, but be careful to change the needle as well, as the final size will be different.
